  • This is the question I had since I first heard about the SCX6 - is it better to have this large-scale crawler than a the standard 1/10?
    Obviously, price is huge impact here. Size matters also - both in a positive way for getting over things, but negative way because it can't do some of the standard 1/10 obstacles.
    Who is the SCX6 better for? Who is the SCX10 better for?
    My buddy Nathan from Big Buddhas RC Ranch ( / bigbuddhasrcranch ) ran through his woods with his new SCX6, with me following around with my SCX10iii Gladiator.

    Troy, what's happening buddy. IDK $1100.00 is a lot of doe. Now you know you aren't going to leave this thing in stock form when all the accessories start hitting the market. Who knows how much money you will end up putting into this rig. I also think portals would have been nice on this. Just my opinion. I guess if you have to be the biggest guy at the park then go for it. Comparing the 2 ? like the saying goes it's not about the size, it's about how you use it. I'll stick with my Gen8v2 with my upgrades for now & see where this big crawler market ends up. Great review & comparison.

      Thanks! I agree - I believe most folks will be very happy with the 1/10 scale.

      Exactly!
      The interesting thing is that when you remove the 1:10, you kind of forget about the size.

    For me, my budget, available storage, and amount of room to run I have; the 10 scale is the best "weigh" to go.

    It is cool. LHS has one to mess around with. But, for the price of the scx6, I could get 2 1/10 crawlers plus a few upgrades for each. Cool video tho, thanks

    • @RoadsideRC
      @RoadsideRC  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Totally agree!
      For me personally, I will stick with the 1/10 based on the price and capability.

    What’s the run time of the scx6 in comparison to the scx10iii?

    • @RoadsideRC
      @RoadsideRC  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      All depends on what battery you run, so there is no single answer.
      Of course, if you put the same battery in both trucks, the 10iii will get dramatically more run time. But I would not suggest using the same battery in the SCX6.

    Hey, Loved it man! Really honest review..! I am planning to get my first rc crawler and was confused whether to go for SCX6 or SCX10.3. Watched your video from start to end and I made a decision..SCX10.3 for sure.. at least for now. By the way, Congratulations!!! You've just earned another subscriber!

    to this but I’ve been gaining interest 1/6 scale crawler. But man at 25lbs if it broke down on the trail 2 miles away and have to carry it back. 😮 You made some very good points on both. Thank you.

  • @guyblake4159
    @guyblake4159 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    This really isnt a good way to dona comparsion.
    The scx10.3 can find hundreds of tight spots the scx6 wouldnt clear.
    The scx6 has bigger tires and a greater ground clearance.
    When covering the same ground, one or the other is always at a disadvantage, but it still doesnt show which is more capable. To do this, the terrain needs to be on par with the scale of each truck. Take the first obstacle, the 6 inch ledge. Of course the sxc6 "won" that round just the same as the scx "won" driving through the covered hut.
    Still, my take from the video is the scx6 os just as capable and can conquer more obstacles along a trail than a scx10.3.

    Looking at a few rc's as I want a new project and stumbled upon this video. I like your honesty on this rig so I subscribed. Seeing how this rig is on my list,I'm undecided as I do like this rig but I'm curious to see how much aftermarket support it gets as I saw several upgrades but not alot like the other scx10 lineup. My other thought would be how long before this rig gets discontinued as it seems everytime a company releases a 1/5 or 1/6 and even a 1/8 scale rig it doesn't last long on the market. So hopefully this will change things as I always had a soft spot for the big scale rc's.

    • @RoadsideRC
      @RoadsideRC  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It is hard for me to recommend this truck unless someone really wants the novelty of it, or unless you have a bunch of friends with similar sized trucks.
      Running it with 1/10 trucks has not been fun so far.

    • @jonlaird5082
      @jonlaird5082 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I definitely see your point as you do make several good ones. If the aftermarket starts supporting it and other companies get involved with the bigger scale then who knows,maybe crawler comps with start a new group. But time will tell as it took a good while for the 1/10 crawler/scale scene to really blow up. So hopefully this will open things up for a new market as axial usually paves the way for new things,especially in the crawler field.
